1. ORIGINATING SERVICE/AGENCY AND POC INFORMATION: Defense Enterprise 

Data Standards Office (DEDSO), DoDAAD PRC Chair, Mr. Richard Morrow, at 571-527-6692, 

e-mail: DoDAAD@dla.mil

2. REFERENCES:

a. DLM 4000.25, Defense Logistics Management Standards (DLMS), Volume 6, 

Chapter 2, Department of Defense Activity Address Directory.

b. DoDAAD Update Application Standard Operating Procedures (SOP)

3. APPROVED CHANGE(S):

a. Brief Overview of Change: This change enhances the DoDAAD Update Application

by allowing for the attachment, viewing, and downloading of an electronic file. It will also 

enhance eDAASINQ to permit viewing and downloading of attached files.

b. Background: Many of the Component workflow processes are dependent upon 

electronic files sent to a Central Service Point (CSP) or Monitor. Currently, those files are saved 

independent of the DoDAAD in online or offline repositories. This change will allow files to be

linked and directly saved with a DoDAAC record, which will improve the CSP and Monitor user 

experience and improve auditability. 

c. Change in Detail:

(1) In the DoDAAD Update Application, a new button will be added to the 

“Notes” section at the bottom of the page to upload a file. The button name will be “Attach file” 

and bring up a dialog box limited to the following file types:

Extension Extension Extension Extension Extension Extension

.doc .msg .ppt .rtf .xls .xml

.docx .pdf .pptx .txt .xlsx .csv

(2) As files are added, they should be listed in the Notes section as a table below 

the Notes and Attach buttons. The list must contain the following information/options:

(a) File name (with extension)

(b) View/download button (to download the file)

(c) Remove button (to delete the file from the DoDAAD)

(3) In the eDAASINQ, the file attachments should be listed in the “Notes” 

section below any existing notes that exist. The display of table should match the file table from 

the DoDAAD Update application (except there will be no remove option):

(a) File name (with extension)

(b) View/download button (to download the file)

d. Revisions to Defense Logistics Manuals: No changes to the manual.

e. Proposed Transaction Flow: N/A

f. Alternatives: N/A

4. REASON FOR CHANGE: The Components workflow is dependent (in most cases) on 

people submitting electronic files to a CSP or Monitor. 

5. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES:

a. Advantages: This will allow the input files to be saved to the DoDAAC, improving 

auditability.

b. Disadvantages: None

6. ESTIMATED TIMELINE/IMPLEMENTATION TARGET: Authorized for immediate 

implementation by DAAS upon publication of the Approved Change (ADC). The following 

targeted deadlines are provided: 

a. DAAS: Target timeline for DAAS to implement this change is 90 days from the 

publication of the ADC. 

b. Services/Agencies: N/A 

7. ESTIMATED SAVINGS/COST AVOIDANCE ASSOCIATED WITH 

IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS CHANGE: N/A

8. IMPACT: 

a. New/Changes Data Elements: N/A

b. Automated Information Systems (AIS): DoDAAD Update Application and 

eDAASINQ.

c. Army and Air Force. No change required.

d. Defense Automatic Addressing System (DAAS): DoDAAD Update Application

and eDAASINQ.
